Something a little different and very enjoyable today. chopping all this hardwood into small logs ready for the logburner in the winter months ahead. Using a top of the range stihl battery chainsaw made it very easy.

I'm pleased to say I can now offer a lawn scarifying service. Contact me for a free no-obligtion quote!

 

Why should you scarify your lawn?

 

The scarification process removes organic matter, such as thatch or moss, from around the base of the grass plants and tidies up any straggly lateral growth, that will otherwise prevent good dense plant growth. If you do not scarify, debris will build up and lead to other problems. For example, thatchy and mossy lawns will not be very wear or drought tolerant.

 

We recommend scarification takes place before other procedures, including top dressing, overseeding and applying fertiliser, for maximum effect.
